J.Fraser should have a comment in first position. Usually a confusing sentence about Abbot which includes the word 'no' in capital letters a couple of times.

Aussies Struggling of Sydney Posted at 11:19 AM February 28, 2013

Raising immigration will only reduce the standard of living for everyone and our infrastructure and underfunded hospitals are already creaking under the strain of a higher population. How about the party that is elected to government, reduce or eliminate foreign aid altogether? This money saved could help balance the budget or be used to tackle problems affecting everyone in Australia. Perhaps this money could be used to build high speed trains so that people can live further from major capital cities and therefore alleviate housing cost pressures. I wish the people in government could take the initiative to think about these things. We need to get rid of the carbon tax and think of other means to reduce upward cost pressures. Lower costs will help Aussie business become competitive with other countries.
